This month, Tweetspeak Poetry invited writers to build a rain-themed poem using the titles of books as inspiration…also known as “book spine poetry." The poems I've read so far have been amazing, and I couldn't help but be inspired to come out and play. Stop by Tweetspeak or if you're on Twitter, search for the #tsrain hashtag.
